Testing fuss jeopardizes Pacquiao-Mayweather

http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=4766171

The Manny Pacquiao-Floyd Mayweather welterweight title megafight, tentatively scheduled for March 13 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, is in jeopardy.

**IMDAZED** · 12-23-2009, 12:11 PM

Dan's going to play both sides. Can almost guarantee it.

"I understand Pacquiao not liking having his blood taken because, frankly, I don't know anyone who really does," Mayweather said in a statement. "But in a fight of this magnitude, I think it is our responsibility to subject ourselves to sportsmanship at the highest level. I have already agreed to the testing and it is a shame that he is not willing to do the same. It leaves me with great doubt as to the level of fairness I would be facing in the ring that night.

"I hope that this is either some miscommunication or that Manny will change his mind and step up and allow these tests, which were good enough for all these other great athletes, to be performed by USADA."

only guessing its the same thing

**THE REED** · 12-23-2009, 12:12 PM

Dan is saying he still feels the fight will go through...

**gopi11** · 12-23-2009, 12:13 PM

I already saw it a couple of hours ago. Dan said that don't get your panties in a bunch, because he thinks the fight will still happen. It's just a fuming Bob Arum spewing his usual bs, he's on tilt and he said the fight was off in the heat of the moment type of ****...

On Sportscenter, Rafael said Team Pac is trying to suggest using a different agency other than USADA or whoever uses Olympic style testing. Team Pac is looking at the possibility of using the same agency and procedures that the NFL or NBA use. Anything to avoid the possibility of having blood drawn the day before the fight, the day of the weigh in, 4 am, etc, as would be required if they used Olympic style testing. In other words they'll agree to blood testing, but just not right before the fight and not anything that will **** up Pac's routine (like being tested at 4 am or some bullshyt like that)
